What to expect in the Michigan vs Minnesota game?
The Michigan Wolverines are the favorites ahead of their 106th meeting with the Minnesota Golden Gophers. The Wolverines haven't lost a game against their opponents in 10 years and they enter this match as defending NCAA champions.
The Wolverines have started the season with a 3-1 record and adjusted well to life after Jim Harbaugh. They defeated a tough USC Trojans squad and should grow in confidence in the coming weeks.
On the other hand, the Golden Gophers have the uphill task of securing a positive result against one of the best-run programs in all of college football. They haven't defeated the Wolverines since 2014 and they must play an almost perfect game to avoid a loss today. Let's see what they can do at Ann Arbor in Week 5.
